batch add images to mp3 files

Question

I have a few mp3 files:

• first file.mp3
• second file.mp3
• third file.mp3

and artwork for them:

• first file.png
• second file.png
• third file.png

How do I add images as tags to mp3 files (1 to 1; 2 to 2; 3 to 3) in batch mode?

Answer 1

Using eyeD3 maybe you need a loop:

n=1; while [ $n -le 3 ]; do
    eyeD3 add-image $n.image.png:ILLUSTRATION $n.audio.mp3
    let n++
done

Note that the name of your files should be numbered

1.image.png, 2.image.png, 1.audio.mp3 ..... ect.
